WALTHAM, Mass., May 16 -- Security Management Partners (SMP), a leading information security professional services firm, today announced the launch of its new incident response and forensic service offerings. Intended to help companies manage security breaches quickly and in an orderly manner, these service offerings help customers mitigate risk, safeguard business- critical data, and improve systems and procedures.

SMP's incident response and forensic services have been designed to address three escalating levels of organizational risk: reduced productivity due to employee visits to inappropriate Web sites; corporate information being removed or compromised; and criminal activities of an egregious nature. Upon determining that a breach has occurred, SMP's experts apply disciplined investigative techniques to identify the source of the breach, contain it, and gather the related evidence. As a result, SMP can help customers take the appropriate actions and support related legal investigations pertaining to the methodology involved in the breach's preservation, data collection and analysis, and detailed reports.

SMP's President and CEO, James P. Achille, commented, "SMP has earned a solid reputation as an expert in information security. These new forensic offerings leverage our team's strong backgrounds in the configuration and design of networks, systems and applications. As such, we're able to help customers hone in on the origin of a security breach and provide counsel on how to respond to possible attacks or anomalies in their day-to-day operations."

Offered as a monthly subscription or on a project basis, SMP's incident response and forensics services have already been successfully deployed by customers in the financial services and healthcare industries. More information can be accessed at www.smpone.com .
